Any argument based on the 2nd law or evolution makes me almost as angry as ISIS throwing gay men off a building or stoning women, just by the sheer quantity of them. Definitely a similarity in the helplessness I feel in both situations.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Especially since it's a three stage bomb of stupid: they use the 2nd law of thermodynamics wrong + need to make the assumption that the sun doesn't exist, to disprove evolution, and then wrongly assume that disproving evolution proves Christianity.

Don't forget the 4th stage: repeat.
There's nothing you can say to them. Reminds me of an ornery toddler when they decide no matter what they aren't going to listen. I just get tired of explaining it or seeing it explained to them. It's an exercise in futility and a waste of time on par with believing in the argument in the first place.

God loves everyone.
But god doesn't love everyone god is selectively loving.

I almost forgot a favorite of William Lame Craig the argument from the resurrection of Jesus.

Man, you missed His_Majesty. He was a WLC clone. To this day, I don't know if he ever got around to even attempting to prove the resurrection of Jesus.

Worst Arguments For Christianity
One of the worse is the cop out reply when asked why does God allow 20,000 children die of starvation every day.

Passing the buck.

Sometimes my hyperbole gets the best of me. Maybe I should take up politics. Except I hate politics....
I suppose it is a pet peeve of mine, that real, true, smart Christians profess, don't believe all that hogwash their less-educated back-woodsy type brethren believe. They believe, hard core, smart, *complicated*, sophisticated theology. They give degrees in this stuff! From real schools!
But, my position is there is nothing more sophisticated to these arguments, other than obfuscating language, than anything the back woods type might bring forth.
The theological emperor has no clothes. And I've yet to have a theist (or a sympathetic atheist) demonstrate this is not the case.

People are willing to die for many reasons one being to feel important and like hero.
It's also hilarious when apologists handwave away how other religions have martyrs and argue all other religions are falsehoods and deceptions. Here's a thought, if all the other religions are deceptions and falsehoods then how likely is it that this other religion called Christianity is a full of falsehoods and deceptions?
